Pulmonary Artery Perforation

Puncture or laceration of the pulmonary, intercostal, or peripheral vessels is an uncommon, but potentially life-threatening, complication of thoracentesis, which has been reported to result in severe haemothorax in 75% of patients. Damage to these vessels typically requires surgical intervention or intra-arterial embolisation. We report the successful non-surgical management of an unusual case of pulmonary artery perforation without concomitant haemothorax in an 82-year-old man who underwent thoracentesis.

Gall Stone Ileus

Gallstone ileus is an uncommon and often life-threatening complication of cholelithiasis. In this case report, we discuss a difficult diagnostic case of gallstone ileus presenting as small gut obstruction with ischemia. A 56-year-old female presented with abdominal pain and vomiting. A CT scan was performed and showed an evolving bowel obstruction with features of gut ischemia with pneumobilia although no frank hyper density suggestive of a gallstone was noted. The patient underwent emergency surgery and a 60 mm obstructing calculus was removed from the patient's jejunum, with a formal tube cholecystostomy. JMS 2018: 21 (2):117-119

Precipitating Factor

Osteomyelitis of maxillofacial skeleton is common in developing countries such as India. This case report describes successful surgical treatment of chronic suppurative osteomyelitis {CSO} of the mandible of a 35yr old female. The precipitating factor was thought to be eventful extraction in the {left } posterior body at the inferior border of mandible. Methods: Presurgical course of antibiotics ( Amoxycillin and metronidazole for 7 days and later followed by doxycycline for 1 month).Surgical debridement of the affected bone and reinforcing it with reconstruction plate using AO principles was done . Patient was kept on a high nutrient diet consisting of proteins. Conclusion: The case report demonstrates the typical features of CSO . The combination of the antibiotics therapy and surgical debridement was successful in the treatment of chronic suppurative osteomylitis.

: Infective Endocarditis (IE), a known complication of hemodialysis (HD), has recently been categorized as Healthcare-Associated Infective Endocarditis (HAIE). Single pathogen bacteremia is common, polymicrobial endocardial infection is rare in this cohort of the patients. We report a case of endocarditis caused by Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) and Burkholderia cepacia (B. cepacia), a first ever reported combination of a usual and an unusual organism, respectively, in a patient on HD. Clinical presentation of the patient, its complicated course ,medical and surgical management ,along with microbial and echocardiographic findings is presented herein. The authors believe that presentation of this case of HAIE may benefit and contribute positively to cardiac science owing to the rare encounter of this organism as a pathogen in infective endocarditis and the difficulties in treating it.

Large Animals

Oesophageal disorders are relatively uncommon in large animals. Oesophageal obstruction is the most frequently encountered clinical presentation in bovine and it may be intraluminal or extra luminal (Haven, 1990). Intraluminal obstruction or “choke” is the most common abnormality that usually occurs when foreign objects, large feedstuff, medicated boluses, trichobezoars, or oesophageal granuloma lodge in the lumen of the oesophagus. Oesophageal obstructions in bovine commonly occur at the pharynx, the cranial aspect of the cervical oesophagus, the thoracic inlet, or the base of the heart (Choudhary et al., 2010). Diagnosis of such problem depends on the history of eating particular foodstuff and clinical signs as bloat, tenesmus, retching, and salivation

Haematoma Formation

Aural haematoma is the collection of blood or serum within the cartilage plate of the ear pinna which presents as fluctuant, fluid-filled swelling on the concave surface of one or both the pinna (Fossum, 2007). It occurs as a result of constant shaking and rubbing of ear due to otitis, ectoparasitism, ottorrhoea, foreign bodies, hypersensitivity and allergic dermatitis. This chronic irritation, constant shaking and rubbing of the ear leads to rupture of the pinnal blood vessel resulting in haematoma formation (Ahiwar et al., 2007).
